I was genuinely surprised by the impact of the Challenge of Leadership programme (COL). To me, the program could just as well be called The Challenge of Leading Your Own Life.
It brought me face to face with my blind spots in a way that was both deeply intense and beautifully constructive. That experience gave me the inner strength and peace to make moves that had been stuck for quite some time. I came to see—and experience firsthand—the power of knowing yourself more deeply, and how that shapes you into a better leader: more self-aware, reflective, thoughtful, and ultimately more alive and fully engaged with what truly matters.
As an added bonus, I gained friendships that I believe will last a lifetime. We continue to support one another, share our experiences, and help each other keep growing long after the program has ended.
